With fall upon us and Halloween right around the corner, I'd like to show you some differentiated 'I Am a Bat' emergent readers. And then I have a FREE DOWNLOAD you can try out if you haven't already!

While you really can use these readers at any time of year, I tend to do them around our Halloween and Nocturnal Animals units. I have many animal readers in this series, but I'm only going to highlight the bat readers today!
So this is what the cover looks like. It's the same for all three levels of the reader.
Here's what it looks like full size. Each page of the book comes two-to-a-page so that you can easily print the books using the collate and staple options on your copy machine. Then use a paper cutter to quickly slice between the books and just like magic, they're already assembled for you!
Meet your students right where they're at with three differentiated levels to choose from. Your kiddos can highlight any sight words, chunks, or blends that you are currently working on.
Learn some unique facts about bats that many people don't know!
Learn what they eat and how they sleep.

The last page is one of my favorites. It's included in all of the readers of this series. Students write down a list of the favorite things they learned while reading the book! It's a great way to incorporate writing practice. This picture is from a set of rabbit readers, and I just happened to have it handy to show you. This is how the bat books end as well.
Let me show you two ways you can get this bats reader set.
You can get this differentiated reader by itself here:
Or you can get it in a bundle with other readers:
Six readers, all about nocturnal animals, are included in this bundle.
Remember reading that book when you were a kid, about the old lady who swallowed a fly? Well, guess what? She swallows a lot more things now, including bats! My students LOVE when I pull this book out.
I made some activities and centers to go along with this book.
Now, let me show you a FREE DOWNLOAD you can get right now that will give you an opportunity to try those differentiated readers out!
This is the I Am an Alligator set.
It's set up exactly like the bat readers, only your students will be learning about alligators instead! Oh my!
